For Creators
Get Paid to Make UGC Videos
Canvas UGC Marketplace is where creators apply to brand campaigns for short TikTok and Instagram videos. You choose which accounts and videos each brand sees, read the full pay, schedule and ownership terms before you accept, and are paid through Stripe when each video is approved. The platform fee is charged to the brand, never taken from your pay.
How Applying Works
Connect Your Own Account
Connect TikTok, or an Instagram professional account through Instagram Login. The connection is read-only: we never post, send messages or manage ads for you.
Feature Your Best Work
Choose the posts brands see first. Your profile is visible to signed-in brands only, not to the public or search engines.
Apply With What You Choose
Each application carries only the accounts and videos you pick for that campaign. Brands do not get your login or your account.
Read the Terms, Then Decide
An offer states the pay, videos, schedule, review time and ownership. You have 7 days to accept, decline or propose different pay, ownership or reuse price.
Deliver and Get Paid
Submit each video. When the brand approves it, or its review time runs out, that video’s pay becomes yours.
How You Get Paid
Your pay is agreed, held and sent on fixed rules.
- Your pay
- The amount in the offer is what you receive. The platform fee is added on top for the brand.
- Money held first
- A campaign has to hold the money for your agreement before you can accept it.
- Payouts
- Through Stripe Connect in 119 supported countries, grouped every Friday and sent once you are owed US $25 or the oldest amount has waited 28 days. You are told before accepting work if your country is not supported.
- Silence pays
- If a brand does not review a video within its review time (48 hours to 7 days), it is approved and paid.
- Rejections
- You can dispute a rejection within 5 days. A person decides it; nothing is decided automatically.
- Cancellation
- If an agreement is cancelled, approved videos stay paid and videos under review keep their deadlines.
Who Owns Your Videos
Ownership is agreed in each offer. Nothing passes until a video is approved and paid.
- Keep ownership
- You keep the video. A brand can pay an extra reuse price per video for organic use, paid ads or both, for a set time and region, and you accept each request.
- Exclusive license
- You keep ownership, and the brand alone may use the video for 3, 6 or 12 months, for the stated uses and region.
- Copyright transfer
- The brand owns the video once it is approved and paid.
Tools for Repeat Work
- Rate card
- Publish your price per video, for content only or with posting, your own reuse price, how many jobs you take and your turnaround.
- Private booking link
- Optionally share a private link brands can book you from. A booking is funded before you see it, and you can accept, decline or counter.
- Large files
- Upload videos up to 4 GB. Files are deleted 90 days after the brand’s decision; the delivery record stays.
- Your record
- Standing such as Established or Proven is calculated from completed agreements and reviews on Canvas UGC Marketplace. It cannot be bought.
